   So the docs as written right now use absolute URLs for a lot of the Javadoc 
references, in part to enable a sort of split publishing: Javadocs can live in 
one place (in DataStax documentation historically) while the Markdown can get 
processed and published somewhere else.  As just one example of what I'm 
talking about consider [this 
section](https://github.com/apache/cassandra-java-driver/blob/4.19.0/manual/core/README.md?plain=1#L197)
 of core/README.md with links defined 
[here](https://github.com/apache/cassandra-java-driver/blob/4.19.0/manual/core/README.md?plain=1#L337-L350).
   
   We had discussed a three-fold conversion of docs in total:
   
   * Generate new content to publish in GH branch (this PR)
   * Create PR for process to do generation + publish
   * Update links in the current documentation to point to the proper place
   
   What I'm discussing here could be put off until we work on the third PR 
above.  That's not a _huge_ deal; we'd temporarily be pointing ASF users to the 
Javadoc for 4.17.0 hosted on the DataStax site but that would be addressed when 
the third PR is merged and we re-deploy.
   
   I guess my question is... do we want to continue with this process of using 
absolute URLs to refer to Javadoc?  We probably _can_ switch over to something 
relative now, right?  There are pluses and minuses to consider there... but it 
seemed worthwhile to ask the question.
